cat 301.8 undercarriage problem.

Hi guys, I noticed my track had a bow in it so I pulled the track off and big front wheel. There's the piston which pushes a like a 1" ram back. This is where my issue begins, it's not pushing straight back. There's what looks like another ram in the under carriage that it pushes against. It's no longer pushing on the center of that. I figured there would be a recessed area for it to push into but it pushes into another shaft the same size as the ram. This is my first mini so please forgive me for not using technical names. I'm suppose to do a job tomorrow so urgent help would be greatly appreciated. Marc
